Author: Horatius Bonar, 1867-1884 Appears in 81 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Blessing, and honor, and glory, and power,
Wisdom, and riches, and strength, evermore,
Give ye to Him who our battle hath won,
Whose are the kingdom, the crown, and the throne,
Whose are the kingdom, the crown, and the throne.
2 Dwelleth the light of the glory with Him,
Light of a glory that cannot grow dim,
Light in its silence and beauty and calm,
Light in its gladness and brightness and balm,
Light in its gladness and brightness and balm.
3 Ever ascendeth the song and the joy,
Ever descendeth the love from on high;
Blessing, and honor, and glory, and praise,
This is the theme of the hymns that we raise,
This is the theme of the hymns that we raise.
4 Life of all life, and true Light of all light,
Star of the dawning, unchangingly bright,
Sing we the song of the Lamb that was slain,
Dying in weakness, but rising to reign,
Dying in weakness, but rising to reign.
Amen. Topics: Christ Kingdom of; Christ Light; Christ Majesty of; Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Used With Tune: AMERICAN HYMN
